    Incase anyone is struggling to download. I managed to set up today with following method
    1. Get/ use current VPN on phone and device
    2. Make a new USA Gmail
    3. Sign into Android device ( TV, shield, other box etc) using new email
    4. App store on device should have USA playstore apps now so find and download Disney+ there
    5. Log in and enjoy

    Did this and got it on my phone. When I go to Chromecast to tv Disney plus shows up on my TV but when you select a movie it just says "no video found". Works fine watching from the phone.

    The vpn is only on your android device not on the chromecast so it won't work with it unfortunately

    Now this might be a bit thick to ask but when adding 'family' members to the account, is that done under profiles? I have the account setup for myself, I now want to add in some extra folk. Also I'm not clear on what login details they use- surely it's not a shared login?

    Spotify is pretty straightforward in terms of adding other people and how they get access, this seems less so.

    As far as I know they will log in with your e-mail and password. It's not a family account like Spotify. Its more like a Netflix account.

    The only reason people are sharing is because you can stream on 4 separate devices at the same time. It's still the one account.

    You just give them the log in details and they can add their own profile.

    No email from Sky yet? Just as easy to sign up directly I suppose.

    I asked before about app on lgtv and it's not available until launch date but should I be able to see Disney life? I don't want to sign up for this and then discover I can't watch it on the television.


  • Registered Users Posts: 51 ✭✭owen28


    Still one spot left on family membership if anyone is interested. €15


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,788 ✭✭✭the corpo


    Same, it's ridiculous to have a TV that's only 2 or 3 years old and not have the app for it!

    The apps will get released just before the service goes live. It's probably in their contracts with their resellers of their content that the apps can't go live on until a certain date, as it'll stop people signing up for their services. Same way Apple don't announce a new iPhone or laptop until it's ready to ship, if they announce it 2-3 weeks in advance it'll stop sales of their current products.

    If there are any family spaces I wouldn't mind joining please.

    I checked that out ... My TV is 2013 so app won't be available on it, so advice given from this thread is to get an Amazon fire stick or similar and use that... I have signed up and ordered the fire stick ... Will find out next week if it all works or not.

    Hope so, but Apple TV didn't bother. It's a Samsung, only a couple of years old, and handles Amazon Prime/Netflix etc with no problems. Seems hairbrained not to code for what must be millions of tv sets out there!
